"People come in looking for a Halloween costume, or they want to wear something unique, maybe time-period specific, for a photograph. We have items here that were worn in the 1900s," said Lascoskie. "A lot of our vintage items are very delicate, but still wearable."

In renting out these pieces of Fulton history, Lascoskie says they expect patrons to keep the items in good condition.

"It's mostly trust-based," explained Lascoskie. "We expect people to keep the integrity of the costumes in tact when they take them out."

Costumes can be rented from shows like: "A Chorus Line," "Gypsy," "Les Miserables," "Young Frankenstein," "The Sound of Music" and "Hairspray," among others.
